Doing my first ever metric century tomorrow. Followed by my second ever on Sunday. Hope I'm ready for this!
Oddly my primary worry is that DH doesn't run into any trouble that permanently turns him off from cycling...

We were on a team doing the Ride to Conquer Cancer out of Calgary. Just got home a little while ago. We are tired and sore, but we had a great time! The route was beautiful, event was well-organized, and good spirit all around. Originally Posted by kelownagirl

It was awesome to ride through the finish line with our team and to hear us announced and to be thanked for our fundraising efforts!2014 Bobbin Bramble / Brooks B67

I just won a limbo competition. Well, the "competition" was 30 semi-sozzled party-goers and it was 2 in the morning, but still
I had no idea I could limbo. It earned me lots of attention too, which I certainly didn't mind
Oh, and not to mention that I got a pair of pineapple glasses for my efforts.Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

Unfortunately there are no pictures of the limbo dancing. (I hope
